Valentine's Day is coming up and it's time to plan the perfect dinner, with some delicious treats just for the two of you! Have you ever tried a mouth watering Petit Four? They are so delicious! There are three types of Petit Fours. They're little layered cakes, some have eclair, macaron or mousse filing and decorated, with icing, they're the perfect savory, bite-size appetizer.

The Petit Four Cookbook

For this review, I received one copy of The Petit Four Cookbook! This book has so many delicious recipes! There are recipes for the cakes, syrups, fillings and decorations. The author, Brooks Coulson Nguyen makes it look so easy. Brooks is also the owner of the popular Dragonfly Cakes bakery, who is widely regarded as the American Queen of Petitis Fours! She tells you the equipment you'll need and how to assembly the delicious little cakes! I have made three of the recipes, including the Vanilla Petits Fours, perfect for Valentine's Day! I would highly recommend The Petit Four Cookbook!
